If you buy it without the phase plug all you have to do is glue on your own dustcap. Just FYI, in case anyone wonders the chunk of titanium alone is worth ~$400. It was some scrap I has laying around, and was just machining it for fun and ended up with a phase plug, lol.

how is the cooling with the phase plug? Very cool looking, I had to do a double take.

To be honest I'm not sure Titanium actually isnt a very good conductor of heat, thats why I put a chunk of Aluminum in there to absorb the heat, so it shouldnt be too bad, but there is only one sure way to find out. That said I have fed it ~1.5kw for a min off and on to break it in a little befor pulling the Ts's, and it was fine, it didnt even get hot enough to give off that new coil smell.

Trade for a like new Nightshade v.1 without the titanium piece? Enclosure size for it?
